Draft Genome Sequences of Eight Vibrio sp. Clinical Isolates from across the United States That Form a Basal Sister Clade to Vibrio cholerae.
Liang K , Islam MT , Hussain N , Winkjer NS , Im MS , Rowe LA , Tarr CL , Boucher Y . Microbiol Resour Announc 2019 8 (3) We sequenced the genomes of eight isolates from various regions of the United States. These isolates form a monophyletic cluster clearly related to but distinct from Vibrio cholerae. Phylogenetic and genomic analyses suggest that they represent a basal lineage highly divergent from Vibrio cholerae or a novel species. |
Draft Genome Sequences of Nine Vibrio sp. Isolates from across the United States Closely Related to Vibrio cholerae.
Islam MT , Liang K , Im MS , Winkjer J , Busby S , Tarr CL , Boucher Y . Microbiol Resour Announc 2018 7 (21) We are reporting whole-genome sequences of nine Vibrio sp. isolates closely related to the waterborne human pathogen Vibrio cholerae. These isolates were recovered from sources, including human samples, from different regions of the United States. Genome analysis suggests that this group of isolates represents a highly divergent basal V. cholerae lineage or a closely related novel species. |
Notes from the Field: Cronobacter sakazakii meningitis in a full-term neonate fed exclusively with breast milk - Indiana, 2018

MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep 2018 67 (44) 1248-1249 In January 2018, the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) was notified of a case of Cronobacter sakazakii meningitis in a female neonate who had been fed exclusively maternal breast milk. The infant was born by induced vaginal delivery at 37 weeks’ gestational age. She was discharged from the newborn nursery after 2 days and was clinically well until age 8 days, when she was admitted with poor feeding, fever of 100.4°F (38°C), and abnormal movements. Electroencephalography demonstrated multifocal seizures; MRI demonstrated multifocal restricted diffusion, leptomeningeal enhancement, and patchy hemorrhagic areas. Cultures from blood and cerebrospinal fluid yielded C. sakazakii, a gram-negative pathogenic bacillus. She was initially treated with meropenem, gentamicin, and antiepileptics to control seizures; when antibiotic sensitivity results were available, the antimicrobial regimen was narrowed to cefepime to complete a 21-day course. She was discharged home at age 33 days with early intervention therapies for global hypotonia and close monitoring of her development. |
Complete Genome Sequence of Vibrio sp. Strain 2521-89, a Close Relative of Vibrio cholerae Isolated from Lake Water in New Mexico, USA.
Liang K , Orata FD , Winkjer NS , Rowe LA , Tarr CL , Boucher Y . Genome Announc 2017 5 (35) Vibrio sp. strain 2521-89 is an environmental isolate from lake water in New Mexico, USA. Average nucleotide identity, in silico DNA-DNA hybridization, and core genome single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based phylogenetic analysis suggest that this may be a potentially novel species that is closely related to Vibrio cholerae. |
